    • RE: HELP !! cannot make Sensor work with RFM69

      @christophe-cluzel Yes, I got the same problem, I have been 3days to find out the solution, but no result.
      I configure the RFM69 with ESP8266 as a gateway and Promini as a node.
      The pin connections same with yours.

      I realy need help to solve the problem

      @christophe-cluzel Good luck. Using NRF24 & mysensors library, make IoT project is easy to be implemented. Thanks for mysensors team that have been developed this great library.

      In the previous project, we have tested the range of NRF24. In the open-space, the 100m range can be easily achieved. If it is not enough, there are many modules of NRF24+PA+LNA that can have range for more than 1km.

      My concern is the use of frequency at crowded 2.4GHz.
      In my previous work, I installed my NRF24-based lamp controllers in an exhibition. In that place, the commitee provided a free wifi services. Before opening of the exhibition, we have tested the lamps controllers and working properly. However, during exhibition, the controller was not working. I suspected that this was due to no available channel at 2.4GHz band at that exhibition place. So, if there an option, I want to avoid the use of 2.4GHz band.

      So, I still hope to use RFM69. May be someone have used this RFM69 module, and can share the pin connections and #define configuration in the arduino sketch.

      Thanks

    • RE: first RFM node & Gateway !TSM:FPAR:FAIL (solved)

      @gohan said in first RFM node & Gateway !TSM:FPAR:FAIL:

      Could be a wiring issue on the rfm module, Capacitor not close enough to radio, try changing between power levels, how far apart are radio modules? Try setting radio channel to 1 or 250 in order to move away from other possible interference.

      Hello Gohan,
      In the previous experiments, I have put a big capacitor in the power source. The distance between node (ATMEGA328) and gateway (ESP8266 MQTT gateway) is less than 2 meter.

      How to set the radio channel in RFM69 ?
      Also how to set the power levels ?

      Can you share the #define script of your working code, to see the pins configuration, channels or PA level ?

      Regards,
      Maman

      @jeti Hello jeti,
      I have also the same problem.
      However, if you have NRF24 modules, it is better to use the NRF24, first.
      Therefore, you will get the good experiences in using mysensors library.

      It seem that the default radio module for mysensors is NRF24.
      Today, someone suggested me to use older version of the mysensors library.
      But, I still busy for other job, not yet tried it.

      Regards,

    • RE: RFM69 range issues

      @Yeitso Thanks, I will try to downgrade the mysensors library.

      Can you share the #define script that working on ATMEGA328 and ESP8266 board ?

      Thanks for your help.

      I want to use 433MHz
      I have soldered wire antenna (about 17 cm)

    • RE: HELP !! cannot make Sensor work with RFM69

      Using NRF24, actually, mysensors system is no problem. The node (ATMEGA328) and the gateway (ESP8266) can work properly. Now we have 3 nodes and one gateway, working properly. We use MyController.org software deployed in cloud server as the controller.

      We want to work on RFM69, because the radio can use 433MHz, while NRF24 use 2.4GHz.
      This is the crowded frequency.

    • RE: RFM69 range issues

      I configure the ESP8266 MQTT gateway using RFM69HW.

      I define as follows

      #define MY_RADIO_RFM69
      #define MY_RFM69_FREQUENCY RF69_433MHZ
      #define MY_IS_RFM69HW
      #define MY_RFM69_NETWORKID 100
      #define RF69_IRQ_PIN 4
      #define RF69_SPI_CS 15
      #define MY_RF69_IRQ_PIN RF69_IRQ_PIN
      #define MY_RF69_SPI_CS RF69_SPI_CS

      For node side, I use Promini ATMEGA328
      #define MY_NODE_ID 7
      #define MY_PARENT_NODE_ID 0
      #define MY_RADIO_RFM69
      #define MY_RFM69_FREQUENCY RF69_433MHZ
      #define MY_IS_RFM69HW
      #define MY_RFM69_NETWORKID 100
      #define RF69_IRQ_PIN 2
      #define RF69_SPI_CS 10
      #define MY_RF69_IRQ_PIN RF69_IRQ_PIN
      #define MY_RF69_SPI_CS RF69_SPI_CS

      But, the node (Promini) can not communicate with the gateway
